| 7516798402 | Nuclear Envelope | -surrounds genetic material -separates nucleus from the cytoplasm -double lipid bilayer regulates what goes into the cell -present in both animal and plant cells | 0 | |
| 7516798403 | Golgi Apparatus | -packaging organelle -located in the cytoplasm -takes in small molecules and forms more complex molecules -can either store the more complex molecules or release them -has two layers that surround an area of fluid that contains proteins, enzymes, and sugars -present in both animal and plant cells | 1 | |
| 7516798404 | Endoplasmic Reticulum | -network of membranous sacs and tubes -surrounds the nucleus in the cytoplasm -active in membrane synthesis and metabolic processes -has rough and smooth regions -has double membrane called cisternae where proteins are collected and synthesized -present in both animal and plant cells | 2 | |
| 7516798405 | Mitochondria | -cellular respiration -ATP is generated -double membrane increases surface area within the organelle to allow more chemical reactions to occur -located in cytoplasm -present in both animal and plant cells | 3 | |
| 7516798406 | Chloroplast | -produce food for plant cells -convert light energy from the sun into sugars -double membrane surrounds and protects inner chloroplasts -located in cytoplasm -only present in plant cells | 4 | |
| 7516798407 | Ribosome | -makes proteins -located in cytosol or endoplasmic reticulum -present in both animal and plant cells | 5 | |
| 7516798408 | Lysosome | -hold enzymes -digest food and break down dead cells -located in cytoplasm -present in both animal and plant cells | 6 | |
| 7516798409 | Vacuole | -storage -located in cytoplasm -present in both animal and plant cells | 7 | |
| 7516798410 | Cytoskeleton | -reinforces cell's shape -functions in cell movement -made of proteins -proteins attach to them for stability -located on the outside of the cell -present in both animal and plant cells | 8 | |
| 7516798411 | Cell Wall | -outer layer that maintains cell's shape and protects cell from mechanical damage -semi permeable -located on the outside of the cell membrane -only present in plant cells | 9 | |
| 7516798412 | Prokaryotic Cells | -no nucleus -circular DNA located in cytoplasm -single celled -no organelles -bacteria, archaea, and eubacteria -more basic -have cell membranes -have ribosomes | 10 | |
| 7516798413 | Eukaryotic Cells | -have nucleus -have linear DNA located in nucleus -have organelles -cells animals have -multicellular -more complex -cell membranes -ribosomes | 11 | |
| 7516798415 | Cell Membrane | -separates cell from aqueous environment and controls traffic in and out of the cell -collage of proteins and other molecules embedded in the fluid matrix of the lipid bilayer |  | 12 |
